According to @doctortraderr, The Open Network's native cryptocurrency (TON) has decisively broken the $3 resistance level, supported by trading volume nearly three times the period average, indicating potential institutional accumulation. Technical analysis reveals a clear uptrend with strong support established at $2.94 and a new level forming at $2.982 after a V-shaped recovery. This bullish momentum is further fueled by ecosystem developments, as a new TON-based protocol named Affluent, co-founded by a former TON Foundation director, aims to establish Telegram as a financial 'super app' for DeFi, offering lending pools and yield strategies. This development follows Telegram's formal endorsement of TON as its blockchain of choice for Web3 infrastructure, strengthening the fundamental case for the asset.
